Ask Me Help Desk - Women are so WEIRD.

Oh really?
Why do females expect so much from their partners and then give us the whole run down list of "things women have/get that men dont and should be greatfull for not having"

And they something but mean the opposite and say WE are too complicated.

Though, it does work on both sides of the fence...

Gee thanks for sharing .

Have to agree.

I will be honest and this may offend some women and it may offend more men. I know women have some interesting things about them, but ANY woman that can put up with a man (especially a guy like me) is a saint... an angel... a freaking miracle. As much as I would like to think women are illogical, emotional and such, I am ten times worse.

I love women. Their genuine warmth (most of you gals), their smile, their smell, the way they like to be hugged, their compassion and their conviction. I like those that are opinionated and those who can just roll with the punches... those that like to get dirty and those that know how to doll up... those that can comfort me and know how to make me smile and those who know when words are best kept inside... grab her a beer or get her a martini, it doesn't matter!

So hats off to you women who can handle us, the most complicated men! Creatures without emotion and who tend to act like robots from time to time. Thanks for putting up with me!

Carry on... :cool:

You made my day.big hug.

Men and women are different, but are complementary.

Have you heard of the Allan and Barbara Pease?

I'll post a few.

What women say about men:
1. Unsentimental, careless, oblivious to orders
2. Unaffectionate
3. Not serious, speechless, unshowing love
4. Single minded
5. Do not wash up after toilet, don't put back seat.

What men say about women:
1. On driving, they lose sense of orientation
2. Read words 'underside-up' to understand, but never understand
3. Talk too much to explain a simple thing
4. Never speak what needs to be said directly
5. Leaving toilet seat down.

Don't you see that you are sort of acting like the people who created those? Do you want to form part of those people who want to focus on the possible 'weakness' of the other just to show they're the better sex? Let me tell you that it's a pointless fight, and absolutely insensible. You talked about God. Well, God made the woman so that the man will not be alone. Also, God took a rib from the man, not a thigh bone, nor a bone in the skull. The rib means that men and women are equal. There's no reason at all to say "ha these men/women are so xxxxx"

Accept them as they are, as you accept yourself as you are.

It takes a man to appreciate a woman, boy. You're bellyachin tells me that you ain't up to the challenge.

Good Im liking all the perspectives I've been getting over these thread. All the opinions. Some of it I agree with... and some I actually do agree with. I was really curious to what people's reactions would be to that kind of post. Which wasn't really what I was hoping for. But neat.

I just like looking at the reality of the situation.

I appreciate all the responses...

Also, I wonder why you chose the 'relationships' board to post that...

Sweet Guy I think your main theme here is that women are a pain in the a$$, and I totally agree... but (and I can't speak for every guy, just for myself) I also know there is NO woman that is a bigger pain in the a$$ than I am... just saying!

Have to spread the love.

I'd venture to say that the OP is in the same boat. ;)

I agree also as Im laughing at my desk at work.

SG are you having woman problems? Perhaps you should go into detail about what's on your mind.

If it hadn't been for the context in which you say this,I would say this was one of the better tributes to womankind that could come from a man:)

I'll take the typical male response to this thread and keep my mouth shut!

This one is too hot to handle...

Women are great!:D

Then you're not meeting the right women.

All hostility between us aside, there may be a few women that match what you stated in your original post, but the majority of women out there aren't like that at all.

Where do you go to meet people?

What qualities are you looking for in a girl?

I have to wonder why you seem to be attracting these types of women. Like I said, the only thing they all have in common is you, so I would have to wonder what it is about you that attracts these types of women.

Like I said before you need to find a more mature type girl that knows what she wants.
What age difference are you going for?
Like if you are in your mid 20's and looking for younger girls that is all you are going to find.
They are mostly more concerned about their own self centered desires and so forth.
The young girls I know they are so uneducated and have no integrity.

Try finding a girlfriend at least a couple years older than you with a decent career.

Im seeing you everywhere... and we think alike... thats scary... lol

But yeah I'm 24yrs of age... and maybe I need an older woman, but the thing is that the woman I meet are older than me. And Im enjoying single life as well, I don't need an companion. Im enjoying finishing college and enjoying life altogether but the women that I have met act that way.

I meet a lot of women I don't find interesting and a lot of women I do find interesting. It is a mix, but I figure out a way to have fun regardless and I think that is the key thing. Looking can sometimes have a weird effect of making us ignore what is right in front of us.

You really are meeting the wrong women.

How old are these girls?

I have to say, at 24 I thought I was really mature, heck, I got married at 24, so I guess I was mature. ;)

I've never been the type of girl you described, not even close. Are you meeting these girls in college?

Once you figure out the pattern, you can change it.

Then you need an older thinking women one that has actually grown up.

But you are doing the best thing pursuing your life and goals. The right one will be there at the right time in the right place if you are doing the right thing for you.

I know the girls I run into any more I know where you are coming from.

So true.

It wasn't until I stopped looking that I found the guy for me.

I had actually sworn off men, was going to take a break from the whole dating thing. I had just come out of another bad relationship (I have a very long list of bad relationships).

My friends invited me out, this guy was there, he was funny, nice, didn't invade my space, we talked, had a few laughs, went out casually as friends for a while, then all of a sudden I realized that I really liked having him around.

19 years later and we're still together, married for 14 years, two kids, a lot of pets and still in love. Yes, there are times I could just smack him, but you take the bad with the good, and the bad really isn't that bad.

Stop looking, just have fun, miss right is probably right in front of you but you haven't noticed.

Same here I gave up but still haven't found a decent guy BUT what do I expect when I have been staying in the livingroom on the computer day in and day out!
Guess they are still sworn off in my book

I guess also Im still finding out what I really want also... but I have been having a blast lately, with just enjoying life in general.

I know this that the women that I have met so far, I know for a fact I don't want that kind of woman. Oh gees

Well then, that's progress.

You may not know what you want, but you know what you don't want, so go for the opposite of what you don't want and you may find what you want.

If you understood that then you've had more coffee then me. ;)

Yep that is progress. You know what NOT to look for.
I do believe the reason I never found a really decent guy in 30 some years was that I wasn't pursuing what I wanted in my life so I ended up always being wrong place, wrong time, meeting Mr. Wrong.

Mr. Right is out there. Or at lease Mr. Right now. ;)

I got lucky, met hubby when I was 19, didn't expect it, it's not the norm, most people don't find the person they'll spend their life with at 19. We work well together, we're a team, he's the icing on my cake, the cheese in my mac, the ying in my yang?

I'll keep him, let's put it that way. ;)

You and those analogies... lol
